Answer 1

Remove log4j-over-slf4j from your class path.

Answer 2

I copied class from the package of hive service jar's source code in which this error is coming and placed it in my plugin project by making same package structure as it was in hive service jar,this solved my issue I know its know perfect solution but its workaround that solved my purpose
